Matt Mullenweg, name giver and CEO of Automattic, the company behind WordPress and , announced in some Twitter replies, that Tumblr will support the protocol as soon as possible. This will add quantities of tumblelogs to the fediverse and therefore make them compatible with Mastodon. Great news for an post-Twitter era!

will bring several million blogs and users to the fediverse, much more than Mastodon’s own usage. It remains to be seen how Tumblr will extend and promote it’s interoperability in the future, e.g. if it’s possible to follow other, non-Tumblr, but ActivityPub-compatible content from within Tumblr.

@eay can this be a load issue for Mastodon instances or is only the single blog federated on a share?
